Jason Mantzoukas (Rafi from The League and Nadal from The Dictator) might know a lot of things, such as how to grow an unruly beard and how to make security pat-downs sound fun. But making a French-press cup of coffee is not one of them, at least if this video from Amy Poehler’s YouTube channel Smart Girls is anything to go by.

To his credit, Mantzoukas’ misfire does serve as a fine cautionary tale for those prone to pushing the French-press plunger too quickly (“You’ve got to push it down slow, otherwise it just shoots out the thing!”), and he’s awfully good at killing three minutes.
